Due to the nature of Lemmy, nothing is ever truly deleted as it gets federated across multiple different instances.

It may eventually sync across most.

Deleting tends to only delete it on that instance, hence why when you reply to a deleted one, chances are you see it from your current instance's cache. Or vice versa.

Yes, it's a full 24 hours, but a library doesn't use 24:00:00 to represent the last hour, it's 23:59:59. Once it hits 24:00, it rolls over to 00:00:00.

Hence my initial error of answering 23.

It's not valid, but I don't edit out erronous answers because I believe all data should be preserved, no matter how dumb it makes one look.

I'm a dog, and I tell you; imaginary dogs count.

What we need isn't browsers. What we need is an universal way to write extensions cross-browser.

Browsers themselves are easy to make. The problem is convincing extension devs to work with yet another codebase.

E: Think of it this way. There's a lot of open source browsers out there.

Are you using any of them? Probably not.

Would you use one if it doesn't have for example Bitwarden, Ublock Origin, Sponsorblock, and such mandatory extensions?

Users follow extensions and ease of use; not what's good for them.

E2: A good project would be a builder extension for VSC for example, which compiles to all supported browsers.

Browser devs would then contribute to said extension via native-made plugins.

Cooperation of two fronts.

You can actually just stream media files sequentially via torrents.

It only needs couple* seedboxes by Google to seed the torrents.

You can care about people as a proxy of doing PR over the thing you like to do.

Not saying he's an asshole or anything; people just need to stop having these weird as fuck personal relationships with online personalities whom they don't even actually know.

But yeah, Linus used to care more, but it was years ago when he started saying he'll stop being CEO soon. Started piling up from back then to where it is now.

Tl;dr: frustrations, inability to do the thing he wanted, high commercial pressure, family, impulsiveness (New houses, new cars, new projects while there were multiple still in progress or not even started), etc. Lost sight of what he was doing, and what he wanted.

Maybe that'll slowly improve with new CEO, and the projects he started finishing.

Browser extensions only configure proxies to the main application (in best case). Worst case they config proxies directly to the provider (via socks5).

They propose that electron tunneling between these quantum wells, which are between 3.7 and 6.5 Ångstroms apart, is the superconducting mechanism.

Uh oh. We're goin tunneling boys and girls. This is how we end the universe as we know it.
